Development.

We don’t believe any digital solution should remain static once it’s launched. Our core specialty is helping B2C & B2B businesses grow by building and continually optimising their sites and applications to drive incremental improvement to conversion and ultimately improve their bottom line.

Technical Consultancy

Gaining an in-depth understanding of your business proposition, end to end sales & marketing and product/service fulfilment is key to helping us formulate an appropriate technology strategy.

We offer consultative services for various areas of technical support, be it helping brands with solutions to technical challenges, platform consultation and selection, system integration management.

eCommerce web development

We work across multiple platforms and believe in defining the requirements prior to making a platform selection, usually to a MoSCoW methodology. This platform consultation, together with an understanding of timescales and budget allows us to recommend the eCommerce platform that best fits your needs.

At Strawberrysoup there’s no need for vendor lock-in and ‘one-size-has-to-fit-all’ approach that comes with an in-house developed platform.

We work across the three platforms with greatest market share in terms of adoption and developer support – Magento, Shopify and WooCommerce – a mix of open source and Platform-As-A-Service (PAAS) options.

Integrations

We have experience in developing scalable eCommerce solutions that work seamlessly with other business critical systems.

We also provide an end-to-end Order Fulfilment service via our partner Fulfilment Crowd.

Bespoke platform development

Whenever a project arises where the requirements are so custom that no amount of development on one of these platforms will fulfil the solution efficiently, we will consider developing a completely bespoke build on an open-source framework (Symfony) accordingly.

Site migrations

We are able to assist brands looking to migrate their existing WordPress, Magento, Shopify or Drupal website to a new provider. It’s not something all agencies entertain but we have a good track record in migrating sites into our care and ongoing maintenance support. The process requires some due diligence, reviewing the existing codebase and creating a detailed migration plan.

Mobile Apps

Have a new business idea that revolves around a mobile app? Maybe you want to use an app to build brand awareness and loyalty, for e-commerce or for PR and collecting valuable customer data.

There are tangible advantages with providing an app-based experience and utilising device data where appropriate (be it location-based information, integrated audio, video and camera capabilities or using ambient light, barometric pressure and different types of motion to create interactivity)

We will work with you to determine which is a more appropriate strategy with requirements, budget and timescale in mind – a native iOS or Android mobile application vs a web-based application.

Our experience includes app development for M&S, Kenwood and most recently KFC.

Hosting

We provide fully managed hosting as a service for all clients. We typically use Amazon Web Services (AWS) as it offers high availability, a distributed infrastructure with reduced latency to all regions of the world and the tangible cost savings – in that its on-demand infrastructure allows us to scale up/down as appropriate to significantly increase the hardware power available to your application in an agile way, and ease-off when appropriate to avoid over-spending.
